Linux kernel source tree
Russell King points out that seville_vsc9953 populates
felix->info->num_tx_queues = 8, but this doesn't make it all the way
into ds->num_tx_queues (which is how the user interface netdev queues
get allocated) [1].
[1]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240415160150.yejcazpjqvn7vhxu@skbuf/
When num_tx_queues=0 for seville, this is implicitly converted to 1 by
dsa_user_create(), and this is good enough for basic operation for a
switch port. The tc qdisc offload layer works with netdev TX queues,
so for QoS offload we need to pretend we have multiple TX queues. The
VSC9953, like ocelot_ext, doesn't export QoS offload, so it doesn't
really matter. But we can definitely set num_tx_queues=8 for all
switches.
The felix->info->num_tx_queues construct itself seems unnecessary.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
